Why there's no UTF-8 fonts?

Hello.
I'm searching for script/handwriting font, i have checked about 100 fonts and NO ONE of them supports UTF-8 encoding (ēūīāšģķļžčņ and more). Why's that? Is UTF-8 really dead? Cus as far as i know, for whole europe UTF-8 is standart font. I can't write my letter without characters like ĀĒŪ and so so.

They support most of the accents you crave. I will add the other glyphs in the future.

And an answer to your question as to why no on bothers to add the accents: because they're a hassle, take a long time and about 70% of the population (or more) don't use caron, hungarian umlaut, macron and the like!

Kimberly Geswein has updated many of her handwriting fonts recently to include those diacritics. The diacritic letters are not always very well designed, but perhaps passable for your intended use? Only free for personal use, mind you.http://www.dafont.com/kimberly-geswein.d1468

I specialize in upgrading free fonts to include most diacritics (with permission from the original designers) and then releasing them with a very generous commercial license. Check out my site if you're on a tight budget, and need good quality fonts with multilingual support http://www.cheapprofonts.com/

BTW, UTF-8 is not a font character set, it's a method to select glyphs (based on Unicode)
ALL the TrueType fonts on this site support UTF-8 - they just don't have that many diacritic glyphs...
